Founder of Love of Christ Generation Church and The Esther Ajayi Foundation, Rev. Esther Ajayi, has extended fully funded scholarship to foster education and leadership development of over 100 youths.
The scholarship is to see them through university education.
The sponsorship which covers tuition, accommodation, and living expenses is for deserving individuals from less-privileged backgrounds within her church and across different states in Nigeria.
Expressing her commitment to fostering a new generation of leaders, Rev. Ajayi stated during the church service on January 14, 2024: “This is my contribution to the development of a new generation of leaders.”
Additionally, she acknowledged and awarded 20 students during the service, recognising their commendable backgrounds and academic achievements.
Emphasising her vision, she underscored the significance of impacting lives and ensuring that the youths are well-prepared for the challenges ahead.

“By the grace of God, I am a graduate, as is every member of my family. Therefore, it is only fitting that the youths around me receive an education as well, recognising that the younger generation is our future,” she articulated.
Encouraging the congregation to support the youth beyond their external appearances, Rev. Ajayi urged them to unlock their full potential in service to God and humanity.
“For the youths, they must realise that there is no limitation to what they can achieve if they trust God and remain focused,” she added, offering words of encouragement.
The beneficiaries and their parents expressed gratitude during the ceremony, offering prayers for Rev. Ajayi and her family’s continued success in ministry and long life.
Master Johnson Daniel, a recipient, conveyed his appreciation, stating: “I am deeply grateful to the Esther Ajayi Foundation for restoring my lost hope. I never imagined that I would be able to pursue education beyond the secondary level, let alone attend a private university. A mother who cares for all the children around her has chosen to provide me and many others with a future and expected end.”
